Is singer Alicia Keys ready to hear the pitter patter of a second baby’s little feet? Apparently so. The world famous singer and her superstar husband, Swizz Beatz, welcomed their first child, son Egypt Daoud Ibarr Dean, last year on Oct. 14. But in a new interview, Keys reveals that she wants to have another child — just not right now.
While hosting her annual Keep A Child Alive gala at the Hammerstein Ballrom on Nov. 3, Keys spoke with The New York Post’s Page Six about rumors of a second child between her and Swizz, telling the magazine, “I definitely see myself having another child.”
However, fans anxious to see Keys and Swizz expand their family shouldn’t expect a new baby. According to Key’s it’ll be another year before she has another child.
“… not in the next year. I’m going to have to go on tour first,” said Keys.
Well, Keys may not be popping out any babies anytime soon, but here are five other celebrities who we hope will be visited by the stork in the near future. –nicholas robinson
1. Mariah Carey – Yeah, her pregnancy seemed like it lasted for eons, but come on! Who didn’t love watching a glowing Carey and her equally glowing husband, Nick Cannon, gush over each other and their baby while the singer was pregnant? And considering how adorable their twins, Monroe and Moroccan Scott, are, do we need any more reasons as to why they should continue procreating? We didn’t think so.
2. Erykah Badu – Simply because you all know it’s going to happen anyway and when it does, you’re all going to love (or hate) every minute of it. Not to mention, the tweets Badu will post while giving birth are going to be EPIC!
3. Khloé Kardashian Odom – Her sister, Kim’s, marriage may have (expectedly) crumbled, but Khloé and husband Lamar Odom have created one of the most lovable marriages in reality show history. And as the couple continues to prove that their love is the real thing, viewers grow increasingly anxious to see their love grow to include a child.
4. Kelly Rowland – Call it a case of being guilty — or rather fertile — by association, but after learning that Jay-Z and Beyoncé are expecting their first child and hearing Rowland’s excitement over the news, we’re beginning to wish that Beyoncé’s “sister” would pop out a baby as well. How amazing would it be to see the two superstar moms and their kids playing together?
5. Beyoncé – Sure, we’re all still waiting for Beyoncé to welcome her first baby with Jay, but tell us you’re not already thinking about baby No. 2 for the power couple. We know that they have a little Beyoncé on the way, but now we’re all waiting for a little Hov to make his way into the world, too.
